''So relatable, so poignant, so emotionally intense, it's an
irresistible rush of a book.'' - Rolling Stone
''A great memoir requires an extraordinary life story and the
ability to write it. Miki has been blessed with both. Compelling.
Funny. Vivid. 4/5'' - Mojo
''This is quite the revelation ... infinitely superior to the
average rock autobiography ... the most candid, full-disclosure
demystification of the indie scene you'll ever read. This is
special, a superbly written book about a vanished world and so much
more. 5/5'' - Record Collector
''A beautifully written memoir.'' - Stylist
''A remarkable, revelatory memoir.'' - Will Hodgkinson, The
Times
''Fiercely honest and emotionally acute ... Fingers Crossed breaks
the mould of music memoir ... Berenyi's writing is characterised by
arch humour and a delight in the absurd.'' - Fiona Sturgess, The
Guardian
''Fingers Crossed provides a salutary corrective to a much
mythologised musical era; it's often extremely funny. But it's also
a nuanced portrait of personal survival.'' - Kitty Empire, The
Observer
